I know you probably just said a random number, but I think student loans tend to be much higher than that. I graduated in 2007 with $100k in loans and the payment was $750 per month. I know that's a fairly high total, but I think the rates were better then too. It wouldn't surprise me if people were facing $500 per month or more these days.
